Living in Singapore I have gotten used to being 13 hours ahead of my friends and family back in Georgia. I wish people Happy birthday the day after their actual birthday and I’ve been trick or treating in the Woodlands long before my friends even get up and think about last minute Halloween candy shopping. However, Superbowl Sunday threw me off a bit. The Superbowl tradition begs for chicken wings, beer, 7 layer dip and other yummy afternoon/evening food.
So what are a bunch of Americans to do when The big game comes on at 8am Monday morning? Take the day off of course and gather at local watering holes that televise the game.
Monday, morning at 6:45 am my husband and I put our 3 children on the school bus and flagged down a cab and headed to Clarke Quay to meet our friends and have beer, chicken wings, and nachos at Did I mind eating bar food and drinking a lager a few short hours after the sun came up? Not a bit. The bar was packed with fans in jerseys and the cheering was loud. Now if only the Broncos could have put more few points on the board!
The only drawback to seeing the game in Singapore was the long awaited commercials were not to be seen in Singapore. Unfortunately, you saw the same 3 local commercials at every TV break. Don’t worry the table next to us made the annoying replay of commercials into a drinking game. That is what I call creativity.
It was a great day for fun not such a great one for Peyton Manning.
